This company or whatever it is has been calling me everyday for about three weeks now. Nobody responds when I answer nor do they ever leave a message on the machine. This has to stop as it is not only annoying, it's harassment as well. I am on the Georgia No Call list and will take this as far as I need to.
This caller is constantly harassing me by calling my number and not responding when I answer and not leaving a message on the machine. This is annoying and must be stopped now!
Called my home but they didn't leave a message. I tried to reverse look it up and whitepages.com says it's an unpublished number in Birmingham, AL. Don't know who it is.
My local paper ran an article on this. It is a scam, asking people to pay for emergency services fees.
Several Walker County citizens have received a phone call asking them to pay their emergency services fee.
But it’s a scam, warns Karen Walker, administrative assistant with the county tax office.
The $65 annual fee is included on property tax bills and it’s never solicited by phone, Walker said.
James McDaniel received such a call. Luckily he knew he had already paid it with his property taxes.
McDaniel became even more suspicious when he noticed on his caller ID that the call came from Birmingham, Ala.
When the Walker County Messenger called the number (205-747-1969), a message played: “ We’re sorry. You have dialed a number that cannot be reached from this special phone.”
McDaniel’s wife Sue noticed the same phone number dozens of times over the past month. She suspects the scam is targeting senior citizens.
No one has reported having paid the fee after a call, Walker said. The scammer gives several options for paying, such as by credit card or by mail.
